“ShaperBox is my most used plugin by far.
Rob Swire (Pendulum/Knife Party)
“ShaperBox is my go-to tool for sidechain-style volume ducking. It’s in every project I do.
“ShaperBox is a box of many must-have, well organised tools for sound design and even mixing. Multiband filter on basic effects makes them sound absolutely the new different way and inspirational. The 'Time' function is my favourite. For sidechain, I use the VolumeShaper, every day.
“Having the ability to bend, slow and manipulate a sound using a single plugin has been a HUGE asset, not just in the area of sound design, but also in conserving processing power. ShaperBox is among our 'Go-To’s' for accomplishing this!
Nard & B, Multi-Platinum Producers (Migos, Future, Lil Uzi Vert)
“ShaperBox 3 is instantly inserted on almost every channel. It’s so versatile , and the new features allow me to add so much character to the production, love it!
Wouter Janssen of Showtek
“ShaperBox is a masterpiece of simplicity of use and complexity of sound. In my daily arsenal.
“ShaperBox 3 is a beast of an update. From the amazing browser to the super-inspiring LiquidShaper. It’s hard to not put this plugin on every sound!
Mick Schultz, Producer (Rihanna, Kelly Clarkson, Jeremih)
“I simply can't do without Cableguys products in my mixing and music production workflow.
Khaliq Glover, Grammy-Winning Engineer (Prince, Justin Timberlake, Herbie Hancock)
“ShaperBox gives a unique change to a production when you felt like the beat was already complete.
C.P Dubb, Producer (Tyga, Tory Lanez, French Montana)
“ShaperBox is so dope because whatever it is you do, however you create, it’ll help you 10x. I promise you your beats will be sounding ten times better if you use it the right way.
TT Audi of 808 Mafia, Producer (Gunna, Tyga, G-Eazy)
“I’m a crazy, crazy user of ShaperBox! Most projects of mine have dozens and dozens of instances.
“ShaperBox 3 is a game changer, especially with the new external sidechain features! Dialing in a precise space for your kick will now be an incredibly fast process, no matter how complex the pattern may be! I will use this in every mix!
John Nathaniel, Producer/Mixer/Writer (OneRepublic, Gwen Stefani, Madison Beer)
“Wow! Love the updated multiband window now offering 3 bands and 24dB filters! That will get heavy use in my future projects for sure. Also the new Pens are very useful! So many new features.
“ShaperBox was a game changer for me and an indispensable tool all throughout the score for Doom, for both mixing and creative purposes. .. Before ShaperBox, I’d have to use at least four completely different plugins to achieve what one instance of ShaperBox can on its own – and with great ease, I might add!

TimeShaper does amazing things to vocals, guitars, synths and other melodic material.
9/10, Computer Music magazine, February 2017
What separates PanShaper from many of its competitors is its multiband functionality. It's a must-have for anyone interested in wide and dynamic stereo sound shaping.
9/10 - Future Music, April 2016
Stuck with a lifeless pad or a boring reverb tail? ShaperBox is the perfect antidote. It's a marvellous and marvellously easy-to-configure range of effects, from filters and drive to panning and time manipulation.
For basic mixing duties or complex sound design, ShaperBox is intuitive, inspirational and highly versatile. Push things to the extreme and start chaining modules together and you can create wild, audio-mangling presets.
MusicTech Magazine, 10/10 – Excellence & Innovation Awards – December 2019
Features
Nine Shaper effects
Time, Drive, Noise, Liquid, Filter, Crush, Volume, Pan and Width Shapers come together in ShaperBox 3.
Experience analogue-like filters, timewarped stutters, multiband distortion, future phaser/flanger FX, punchy compression, super-tight sidechain ducking, mid-side expansion, dynamic noise layering, lo-fi bitcrushing, and much more.
All in one CPU-efficient plugin.
Easier waveform editing
Animate any effect over time with our easiest ever waveform-editing tools. Create curved, stepped, or ramped FX patterns in seconds, and bring rhythmic life to your music.
Locks to the beat
Sync your waveforms to beats and bars so they're always locked to your music. Go from 1/4-note pumping FX to evolving multi-bar patterns and beyond. All with sample-tight accuracy.
Follows any rhythm
Now you can trigger all 9 ShaperBox effects with any sound, for reactive time-twists, distortion envelopes, filter plucks, transient design, and any other triggered FX you can imagine.
Triggers from any track
Want to duck your bass with VolumeShaper, but the kick isn’t 4x4? No problem! Just turn on the External Sidechain Input and Audio Triggering follows any kick rhythm.
And it’s not only for ducking basslines. Want to trigger a bitcrushing pattern on your synth every time the snare hits? Now you can.
External sidechain view
See your kick drum overlaid on the bassline with VolumeShaper’s new Show External Sidechain feature. Draw the perfect ducking curve to match the contour of your kick, and lock your lows together like never before.
Multiband power
Every Shaper can be split into 3 bands, for tightly focused processing. Drive the bass. Stutter the mids. Reverse the highs. All 3 bands get their own LFO and Envelope Follower.
LiquidShaper
Dive deep into sound design! LiquidShaper gives you wild jet-plane flanging and deep, lush phasing in one Shaper. Create gentle stereo modulations… or monstrous robotic comb filter FX.
Enhanced browser
Find your sound in a few clicks with more than 600 cleverly categorised presets. Filter by Shaper, save your faves, and find your custom presets.
Oscilloscope Tool
A dedicated Oscilloscope Tool helps you visualise the dynamics of your music and pinpoint mix problems.
A high-res waveform display locks to beats and bars, audio or MIDI. External sidechain overlay allows you to easily compare any two tracks in your project, in real time.
